Rhythm It is an event that recurring at regular intervals. ·Repetition. ·Displacement. ·Time. The rhythm is a resource that can generate through the repetition of parts movement. In architecture, it allows an appreciation space that invites you to move more or less rapidly.
In the architecture the rhythm can be created by the repetition of columns, windows, and other elements; by the modulation of spaces and its repetition…
Some definitions: Diminishing: Decrease in size, extend or range.
Relief: shapes carved on a surface so as to stand out from the surrounding background.
Subtly: difficult to detect or grasp by the mind.
Mere: simple.
Width: the extend of something from side to side.
Bay spacing: each space or interval between the frames of a steel building is a “bay”.
Narrow: limited in size or scope.
Rhythm: the ordered recurrence of elements in a composition.
Types: Repetition of shapes: windows, doors, columns, wall areas, arches, and the like.
Repetition of dimensions: such as the dimensions between supports or those of bay spacing.
Repetition of differences: In this rhythmical series, the ascending and descending progressions are built up from small to large and to small again. Open rhythm:A mere repetition of similar units equally spaced and without a defined beginning or a defined end. Rhythm of lines: Such rhythms can be merely systematic variations of linear lengths or curvatures.
Rhythms of the masses: The repeated masses.
Vertical Rhythms: Produce a mass of great impact.
Regular Rhythm: Achieve only monotony.
“The spiral is one of the most rhythmical of forms because of its combination of repeated curves around a focus and the continual progressive change in the radius of the curvature.”
In architecture, the rhythm is used to give continuity to a space, to creating a prospect, or to make more height, length or width the space to the human eye...
In this picture we can see a Gothic cathedral. On the facade of this cathedral we see the use of rhythm to generate a sense of height that rises to heaven.The repetition of windows framed in arches like the doors. There is a modulation that divides the facade into three segments, the two towers and the nave. The repetition of the columns also helps generate the rhythm of the facade accentuate the modulation.
